Have been off the computer more than on lately. Saw yeterday's post about Art Arfon's death and didn't know whether anyone posted the sad news of Ron Headley's death a couple months ago.

 Found A Picture Of Betty's Headache in reply to Scotmac, 12-11-2007 15:19:06

I did some searching on the net and found an early picture of Ron Headley (Fairfield,Iowa} pulling "Betty's Headache" which was named after his MIL Betty Forinash.This has to be early 1970's when it was a single Hemi with carbs.

Scott, Yes,one of Rons neighbors from Fairfield posted it on Redpower.I put it on the Pulloff forum and there were quite a few comments about Rons passing.I heard it was from a motorcycle wreck which led to him falling in the house.

Old Ron used to really hammer those twin Hemi's in "Betty's Headache".I got to see him pull quite a few times in the 1970's but dont have a picture of him.Hes gone but not forgotten.I bet they buried him in his bibs.

Yup...they sure did, and his Iowa Hawkeye hat. Ron and I sure had a lot of fun over the years. As fierce as a competitor as he was, he was always the first to help a guy out if he needed it. A sad loss, for sure!
